    Summary

    Wen Kexing hummed and tipped his head back. “My wife says that you are to be trusted.”

    The comment threw Zhou Zishu off-guard. He drank deeply from his own bottle to hide his surprise. “Lord Wen seems to imply that I should not be trusted by default,” he commented, wary of his handicap at midnight. They were sitting far too close. Wen Kexing could slit his throat with his fan before he would be able to grasp the hilt.

    Wen Kexing cocked his head. In the celestial light of the moon, he resembled the Ghost of his name with a pale face and dark eyes. “You’re the leader of the so-called Window of Heaven, are you not? Does that make you a trustworthy man?” He held up his hand before Zhou Zishu could respond. “No need to play coy with me and deny it. I wouldn’t have earned a reputation if I didn’t know the type of snake I’ve invited through my front gate.”
